Be careful if you are thinking of Kathmandu. It might fall over. This project is what has taken the young Miss Bracknell there this week:-

I've just found out that, after a few days in Kuala Lumpur, she's moved on already and is now in Kathmandu. It may well be that the best advice you can get from her will be confined to stuff like "Best coffee shop at the airport".
And - note to Edna - she did fly with Malaysian Airlines.
The young Miss Bracknell is currently working in Kuala Lumpur (for about a week) - something she does quite regularly. I've not known her moan about the place previously, which suggests that it might be an OK city to work in, but I can ask her when she gets back home next week.
